Thread: Activating the left brain hemisphere to attain lucidity

Yeah, I'm still having trouble with it. It's taking me longer than it should. The only thing I've really been able to feel was a very mild warm feeling, but maybe I'm just feeling that because that's what I expect to happen.

You can stimulate the amygdalas just by laughing (i think) .. But really, try it now, (its super easy), just imagine tickling them with a feather (imagine the sensation too) .. You should get a positive happy feeling, laugh, or so...

When you do it, do some ADA, you will see that ADA will BOOOOST so much, you will be aware every 3-4 secs.. your thoughts wont wander, you will be focused on reality so much, that when you go to sleep, it will carry on to your dreams..

Enjoy, and good luck.

Amygdala 'clicking' hasn't altered my lucid dreaming skills as my DILD ability hasn't increased in the last year of amygdala clicking. However, the thechnique of instructing the entire left hemisphere of my brain to become more active during dreams has so far had an effect on my dreams, as reported by a couple of people here. I am not discounting the validity of your success but both techniques may be successful for some and not for others.

but I really had crazy vivid dreams. guess what, I had shared dream with my friend in school

I too have not only been experiencing a great increase in dream vividness but also the nature of my dreams are becoming very bizarre. I have been reading the last couple of days that our dreams are formed from the memories stored in the right hemisphere of our brains. The left hemisphere stores different types of memories than the right hemisphere. It may be that instructing the left hemisphere to become more active somehow incorporates these different types of memories creating the extra craziness that you describe and I have experienced.

It is a result. I often feel just this same feeling when I tickle my amygdalas.
